Browse Forums Building A New House Re: Masterton Homes - The next thread 4.0 13908Jun 23, 2017 8:38 pm To think they just celebrated 55 years, don't be fooled new customers...take your hard earned money elsewhere. Whilst I love our house, it's not perfect, some of the horrible workmanship annoys me. Plus having to wait nearly a year to get things that were outstanding from PCI is ridiculous...poor communication, poor turn around times, poor customer service and poor quality all around Hope your issues are fixed everyone. Keep going to fair trading as it's what finally got our issues sorted Re: Masterton Homes - The next thread 4.0 13909Jun 24, 2017 10:18 am Hi everybody! Haven't been here for a while, things have been moving along but have started to slow down, always the way when your nearly at that finish line!! I don't think we are far off PCI, painting outside needs to be finished, electrical fit out and flooring would be the major things we are waiting on. So sad to read about all of these terrible experiences! Lostcourse - we have the same wastes in our showers and are installed the same as yours. My dad is a plumber and said that he hasn't seen them installed like this before. We will be speaking to the SS about it. Great news in PCI Gibson! Martins Harmony - your place is looking great! Here are some pics of our progress.

Love your colour choices! What house design are you building ... I can see some similarities but didn't think you were building the Harmony Elite? KDR Masterton Harmony Elite + custom granny flat Aug 2015 - Deposit paid Dec 2015 - Contracts signed Feb 2016 - Colours appointments Mar 2016 - DA submitted Jun 2016 - DA approved Re: Masterton Homes - The next thread 4.0 13911Jun 24, 2017 3:25 pm Thanks Martinsharmony! Very happy with how it's coming together. Although I still wish the walls were whiter haha. Anyway, I can live with it! We are building the concerto elite, they are very similar floor plans! We drove past today, and they are doing our flooring!! Woohoo!! Can't wait to see it! ❤️ Concerto Elite Re: Masterton Homes - The next thread 4.0 13912Jun 24, 2017 4:13 pm Are those tiles in your bathroom part of the standard mansion pack/YES inclusion selection or did you need to upgrade? We've put in all these provisional allowances for tile upgrades in our tender so just wondering. Such mixed experiences on this forum. I guess it really depends on which contractors you get on your site and how good your SS is? :\ Tempus Elite Re: Masterton Homes - The next thread 4.0 13913Jun 24, 2017 4:28 pm Hi Izee, We upgraded these tiles, we spent around $5000 extra per bathroom including floor to ceiling height, coloured grout, channel grates etc. I agree with that comment, this is our second Masterton build and have had good experiences both times. This one has been even better than the first and I'm putting that down to a great, organised and experienced SS! Where are you building and which house? Concerto Elite Re: Masterton Homes - The next thread 4.0 13914Jun 24, 2017 4:30 pm Can anyone tell me when Ark install shutters etc? We didn't use them last time. I'm wondering if it's something they install at the very end before keys, or is it still after keys around appliance time? Concerto Elite Re: Masterton Homes - The next thread 4.0 13915Jun 24, 2017 4:39 pm Shell90, your house is looking great. Rox82, nice to see you are making progress too.

Haha I like it Re: Masterton Homes - The next thread 4.0 13918Jun 25, 2017 7:16 pm shell90 Can anyone tell me when Ark install shutters etc? We didn't use them last time.

Hi Shell90, Our shutters from Ark were installed before PCI but vertical blinds were delayed due to incorrect measurements. Pretty happy with shutters except for a few of them which needs a little nudge to close but they will check if they can fix it. Re: Masterton Homes - The next thread 4.0 13919Jun 25, 2017 8:59 pm For everyone that's built with Masterton and have just had colour selections, according to the yes inclusions there is a choice of 2 bamboo floorings. Could you guys let me know what colours they were and whether you went with something else and the price differential?
